Test Coverage
What Is Test Coverage?
Test coverage is a measure of how much of a codebase is exercised by automated tests. It is often expressed as a percentage of lines, branches, or functions covered during test execution.
Why Test Coverage Matters
Test coverage matters because it can help teams:
- understand where testing is thin,
- identify unprotected code areas,
- support safer refactoring,
- improve quality conversations.
Coverage should still be interpreted carefully. High coverage does not guarantee good tests.
How Oobeya Uses Test Coverage Context
Oobeya treats test coverage as supporting context rather than a standalone success metric. It becomes more useful when combined with delivery, failure, and code quality signals.
